Until I started writing this blog only a hand full of people knew of my Asperger's, and my parents don't believe the diagnosis because they nothing is wrong with me or my son.  That's the thing, we function the same but we are socially removed and only like doing what we want to do.  Instead of arguing I just say, OK, you know better than the doctor.  My wife suggested that I start blogging to get out some of my feelings because I like to write, she told me to make it anonymous if I want and no one will know that it's me, but since I have a picture posted of myself I can now be identified and now I am ready to let people know of David and my condition and maybe that will help people better understand us.  It's not that we don't want to talk to you or mingle, we still like to hang out with our friends, it's just hard for us because when there is so much going on it overstimulates us, I can't speak for David but for me it makes me a little nervous when I'm in a big crowd because of the noise and the anxiety of what is going to happen next.  Anyhow, I am just putting it out there now so all of my friends and family, and anyone else that is reading this now knows about our condition.
